Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Creation–evolution controversy. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 18:20, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Regarding above edit
The following has little to do with why your change was reverted, but I'd like to help you understand a factual mistake included in your edit to Creation-evolution controversy. Angular momentum doesn't measure rotation of objects. Angular momentum measures the relative momentum of parts of a physical system with respect to the center or "moment of inertia". Rotation is a kind of angular momentum, but it can be represented in other ways. Imagine a yo-yo being spun on a string. It has a given angular momentum, which can be calculated with a dash of calculus. If you cut the string, the yo-yo flies straight in the last direction it was headed, but the angular momentum of the system of you+the yoyo remains the same, even though it is no longer spinning around you.

Wikipedia has a lovely article on the subject. i kan reed (talk) 19:36, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Zach, I thought what you wrote was very interesting, but I don't know much about it.  Perhaps you could try it again, first as a well cited, discussed item first, and get someone else to document the counter view, also properly cited.  That would actually be helpful, and may actually stick on the site.  (Gryderart (talk) 03:24, 19 June 2011 (UTC))
